Chapter 1 The Office

Han Xiao teleported back to his office on the main planet of the Super-Energy Holy Land. This meeting with the three heads of civilization was much faster than expected, but Ames was not here waiting; she had already left. The room was empty.

"Where did she go?"

"Her Excellency Ames has gone to see Aurora, buzz. Should I notify her to come over?"

"No need, I will take the initiative to find her in a while."

Han Xiao casually asked a question, then didn't ask any more. His expression was not as relaxed as it had been when he was talking eloquently with the three heads of civilization. Instead, he was preoccupied.

He told the three heads of civilization that he was worried about the stability of the interference bridge being damaged during the conversion. This was not a lie, but a real concern.

After this period of testing, he realized that as a conversion medium, he would be subjected to a large amount of information shock and briefly connected to the cosmic pan-consciousness when the information solidification device was officially activated. During the reverse conversion to a real state, the panel, as a special product of the dark side universe, would gradually become ineffective, so the character card could not continue to function during the conversion process.

If he wanted to stay awake and maintain the effect of [Virtual Creation·True], he needed to strengthen his own information foundation and add some "information anchors" to prevent himself from being unable to support it, causing the information interference channel to be disconnected.

He didn't reveal these details. Others couldn't help anyway, and it would only increase their worries.

"The so-called information anchor should be my perception of myself, my connection with the World Tree, and my past memories…"

Han Xiao thought thoughtfully.

This was a rather mysterious perception. If he hadn't reached the Super-God level, he wouldn't have been able to produce this kind of intuition—tracing the past and commemorating the old days might be a way to deepen the information anchor.

"The three major civilizations are about to start preparing, and I have to prepare too…"

Han Xiao calmed his mind, changed into another set of royal attire, and with a whoosh, disappeared into the room again.

…

Shattered Star Ring, Aquamarine Star.

After more than a decade of desolation, the planet was restored to prosperity after the Aquamarine Star people returned. The old buildings covered by nature were demolished and rebuilt, and the entire planet was almost completely new.

Only one place was not renovated. The huge ruins had been covered by wild green vegetation, and a large number of building wreckage inserted into the ground had rusted. This was the site of the Germination Organization, quietly lying on the wasteland, as silent as ever, with only the traces left by the years seeming to tell the story of the past.

Three figures slowly paced through the ruins, stopping and going, and occasionally stopping to observe.

"…Back then, your godfather and I fought side by side to destroy the Germination Organization. He sneaked into here alone and stole countless key confidential information, and rescued the then-young Hela and Aurora. After transferring thousands of miles, he sent the information out, and finally laid the foundation for the battle, so that the six countries had no worries, and used nuclear explosions to destroy the Germination Organization… and Aquamarine Star ushered in a new life on that day."

Benny touched a huge piece of metal plate wreckage, wiped off the rust on it with his palm, revealing a blurred Germination Organization mark. His eyes couldn't help but reveal a complex look of remembrance, as if he was savoring the war-torn years.

Niro, standing behind him, took a few steps forward and put his hand on the metal wreckage as well, and said softly, "I have read about these deeds in textbooks, but every time I come to the Germination ruins, I always have a sense of immersion, as if I have experienced the battle that changed the fate of this planet."

Benny turned his head and glanced at him, shaking his head and laughing. He withdrew his hand and sighed, "Thinking about it carefully, Black Star's appearance when he was young is completely different from what he is now… Alas, when people get old, they love to recall the old days."

"You're not old yet." Mia, who was holding the child, said with a smile at the right time.

Benny laughed heartily, came to Mia, bent down and stared at the baby in Mia's arms, who was staring at him curiously with big eyes, giggled, and stretched out two small short hands.

"Yo, my good grandson, let grandpa hold you."

Benny's face was full of kindness, and his arms that could easily crush steel carefully took over his grandson, swayed him gently in his arms, and was full of joy and comfort.

Niro also came up with an envious expression.

Although he was the child's father, the child would cry endlessly as soon as he held his son, but in his grandfather Benny's arms, his son could sleep very peacefully.

After the end of the war, Niro and Mia had a baby, which made Benny feel very comforted.

Considering that Niro had become the acting regiment commander, and that Aquamarine Star was on the right track, Benny thought again and again, and chose to resign from the position of leader of the Aquamarine Star Federation. Originally, many high-level officials disagreed, hoping that Benny would be re-elected, but he was determined to retire, and now he is no longer responsible for any positions, and retired to enjoy his family.

Benny teased the baby for a while, then looked at Niro and asked, "Have you tested him for super-gene?"

"I've tested it, and the report says that his super-gene is extremely active, to a rare degree. He may be a remarkably talented esper in the future." Niro looked happy.

"Is that so? That's not bad either." Benny nodded, gently stroking the baby's sparse hair.

The three teased the baby, talking and laughing, and slowly walked away.

Suddenly, the space slightly fluctuated, and Han Xiao's figure walked out. He stood in place, watching Benny's family of three generations leave with a sense of happiness.

"So beautiful…"

Han Xiao murmured to himself, retracted his gaze, turned his head to look at the Germination ruins in front of him, and a look of remembrance also appeared in his eyes.

He had gone very far on his own road, but when he looked back, the past on this planet seemed to be right in front of him, just yesterday.

Sealed fragments of memories surged like a tide. In a trance, scenes flashed before his eyes, the dark half-year spent in the Germination base after crossing over, the hard-won escape from birth, driving an off-road vehicle and galloping in the moonlight, leaving Xinglong and walking alone as Dark Emperor in the wilderness, lurking in the Germination Organization to steal information and experiencing thousands of miles of pursuit, and the Germination Organization headquarters turning into ashes in a shining nuclear explosion…

Similarly, figures flashed in his eyes, the young Hela who was determined to devote herself to the abyss but was finally pulled back by him, the young Aurora who was tortured but still optimistic and was finally redeemed by him, Benny who worked tirelessly to end the struggle, and the Germination leader who had no regrets even at the end of his road…

The tragic disaster of the subsequent Heteromorphy was also presented before his eyes, the chaotic world, the crazy crowd, the endless wave of beasts, as well as the flying ships falling from the sky and the hot and fierce naval guns… all sources returned to DarkStar, and finally DarkStar.

"A total of two versions of the disaster, this place is really ill-fated and disaster-ridden…"

Han Xiao closed his eyes slightly, and the plot of versions 1.0 and 2.0 flowed through his mind.

After a long time, he opened his eyes, feeling that his mind was calm, and he seemed to have some subtle changes in himself.

In the dark, his information foundation seemed to be thicker, and it seemed that he had set the first information anchor, connected to Aquamarine Star.

"Aquamarine Star…"

Han Xiao slowly rose into the air, glanced at the overgrown Germination ruins, and then glanced at the bustling city with its endless stream of flying vehicles at the end of the distant horizon. With a gentle turn, he disappeared without a trace.
